Welcome to the epitome of modern urban living where Charleston indoor/outdoor lifestyle meets Old Town Alexandria charm and grace. With almost 2800 sf of updated living space, this home is an entertainer's dream while at the same time offering intimate cozy spaces for every day living. Walk through the courtyard door and step into the welcoming brick patio perfect for hosting neighbors and welcoming guests. Impressive columns form the entry to the formal living room that overlooks the front courtyard. An open bright living space with sparkling hardwood floors combined with 9 foot ceilings accented by crown moldings creates an air of comfort and design sophistication. The gracious dining room accented with chair rail, wainscoting and an elegant pendant light can accommodate large dinner parties with access to both the living room and the family room. The fireplace in the family room with surrounding built-in cabinets for display and storage as well as a bay window overlooking the front courtyard is the perfect place to settle in for a fun movie night or snuggle up and read your favorite book. Step through to the stunning gourmet kitchen with every amenity a chef could dream of - HUGE island with seating, custom white cabinets with lighted upper display, expansive granite counters with elegant leathered finish, chef's quality stainless steel appliances including a double wall oven and six burner gas range. Entertain and enjoy every day meals with views through the glass door to another private patio (with a built-in gas line). Just down the hall is a convenient laundry with built-in shelves and a huge walk-in pantry with custom shelving. Upstairs open the French doors into the primary suite - an incredible escape from the city! Soaring cathedral ceilings, room to accommodate a king bed and multiple seating areas including a private balcony that overlooks the courtyard below. This exceptional primary suite includes a spa bath that rivals a chic boutique hotel with double vanities, separate water closet, an oversized tile shower with custom glass enclosure, soaking tub and then two HUGE walk-in closets both with custom organization. The second bedroom also has soaring cathedral ceilings, multiple large closets with organizers, and a French door to a Juliet balcony that opens to community views. The third bedroom is the perfect home office or exercise space - whatever compliments your lifestyle. The updated shared hall bath has a dual granite vanity and a separate toilet/shower room great for accommodating guests. A two car rear entry garage with shelving provides needed extra storage space.
